Chemical Structure

2-(2-Methyl-1h-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ol CAS 56895-60-4 chemical structure

Description

2-(2-Methyl-1h-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ol (C11H13NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

2-(2-Methyl-1h-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ol (CAS 56895-60-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H13NO and a molecular weight of 175.23 g/mol.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
